Build Him Up

In Song 4:11, the Shulamite bride talked up her husband by telling him what she loved about him.

Julie Gorman, author of the book What I Wish My Mother Had Told Me About Men, said, “Every, yes, every day, I ask myself, How can I add value to Greg? How can I express my respect to him in such a way that he feels it?”

Allison offered this advice to build up your husband: “Guard your words so that you only say positive things about him in public. Even praise him by saying something you appreciate about him in front of him and other people. Showing esteem for your husband is a powerful thing—and it sends a powerful message of love and respect to your husband, as well as others.

“Then, in private, you do not always have to say what is on your mind. Erring on the side of kindness always wins. Let God guard your words. You can’t take them back.”

Ephesians 4:29 says, “Let everything you say be good and helpful, so that your words will be an encouragement to those who hear them” (NLT).

In order to truly practice Ephesians 4:29 with our husbands we need to learn how to reframe what we say.
